What is now clear is that the conclusions from Ancel Key's "7 Countries Study" were non-scientific, that is, they were not those that the total data set actually indicated. Keys selected those countries, of which Australia was but one, that best supported his hypothesis. This is non-scientific.Thus these conclusions are wrong in relation to the actual data & further studies have confirmed this truth. But by 1950 a false link was established (the Keys findings) & then taught as medical law. When Statin drugs were developed in the 1990's a captive market existed & could be exploited & billions made in profits all with the belief that medical good was being done. As to what the drug companies knew or do know..well this we do not know as the data is convert! Yet Doctors thought & were told that they were & are assisting their patients. Today many younger doctors now doubt the Key's findings & scientifically so..as the actual hard data do not support the use of statins for the uses/results claimed. More over statins have many dangerous side effects. My advice..do your own deep research. Visit your doctor with a set of probing but polite questions & see what answers you get. This is essential if you are ON statins.In the mean time..eat a Mediterranean type diet (avoid all junk & processed foods, avoid high sugar foods), exercise on a regular basis. Start smelling the flowers rather than worrying about earning the big bucks (de-stress your lifestyle & spent quality time with your loved ones). Reclaim your health & your life from well meaning but medical "fools" & economic "con-men".
